The Quieter KTV Room
Grammar in this story
Akai’s group only wants to talk, so they ask the front desk for a room that is not so noisy.
The clerk says the innermost room is not as lively as the outer ones and should suit them.
As soon as they sit, orderly but loud singing comes from next door.
It turns out a choir next door is rehearsing for a competition.
Akai goes to ask them to sing more quietly but discovers they are missing a tenor.
The conductor hears him speak and thinks his voice is not as ordinary as expected.
Ten minutes later, Akai is next door singing the highest passage.
His friends listen through the wall and find it is not as noisy as before.
It is not because the choir sings more softly, but because everyone has begun listening carefully.
They do not discuss their planned topic that day, but agree to sing together next time.
The front desk did not arrange the wrong room; it simply had a different understanding of quiet.
